Description
The basis for the epic Technicolor film starring Henry Fonda and Claudette Colbert. Lana and Gil Martin marry in 1776, just as the rumblings of war begin to echo throughout the wilderness of the Mohawk Valley. Though aided by strengthening relationships with fellow settlers, establishing their new home on the frontier is constantly threatened by conflicts with British Loyalists and the Seneca Indians, who use violence to drive people off the land. Through the loss of their home and a pregnancy, and the departure of Gil to join the war efforts, this vivid novel of the American Revolution is a classic testament to the birth of a nation, and to a proud people who triumphed against all odds. Originally published in 1936, this historical American novel was made into a blockbuster movie in 1939. With a new foreword. Vintage Movie Classics spotlights classic films that have stood the test of time, now rediscovered through the publication of the novels on which they were based.
